About This Book
Reach for this book if your teen struggles with chronic anxiety, panic attacks, or the nagging feeling that they are different in a way they can't explain. While the story is a high-stakes science fiction adventure, it serves as a powerful metaphor for the internal experience of mental health struggles, validating the intense sensations of those who feel 'crazy' or misunderstood by the world around them. Seventeen-year-old Skylar's life is defined by terrifying premonitions that something is wrong, until she learns these are actually glimpses into a reality where alien scientists are manipulating human history. As she joins a rebel faction to save the planet, the book explores deep themes of trust, self-confidence, and the heavy burden of responsibility. It is an engaging choice for teens who enjoy complex world-building and high-stakes mystery.
